welp

have to score on this drive

1/13/2013 2:13:28 PM

how did the falcons score?? the seahawks corners are so BIG. i mean, they're BIG and TALL.

1/13/2013 2:14:59 PM

Sherman's going to do his stupid reel thing every time Ryan makes a bad pass and get burned on every good play by Ryan.

1/13/2013 2:15:38 PM

Georgia Dome holds 71,250 and they've never sold out for the entire season...they're usually between 10th-20th in attendance in the league

and in the past 2 decades, they've had 10 losing seasons, they've only been consisently good the last few years

I'm offended that someone would try to argue against Atlanta being an awful sports town

1/13/2013 2:20:19 PM

plus a crowd always sounds louder in a dome

1/13/2013 2:24:10 PM

i'm not saying it's a great sports town. i'm saying it's not the worst, as people have been parroting for years without ever having spent any time in the city other than for some random conference.

so basically, if the falcons are typically between 10-20 in the league in attendance, they're generally better than about half the league? sounds like worst to me.

1/13/2013 2:24:15 PM

Falcons are the best and even then they are average-below average. Cool.

1/13/2013 2:27:29 PM

the Braves are in the middle of the league in attendance too, and they have been a good team for the last 2 decades

and the Hawks attendance obviously sucks

their NHL team left town due to lack of interest

they're not a good pro sports town

1/13/2013 2:27:38 PM

GT barely draws anyone as well. That whole city sucks and is dirty

1/13/2013 2:29:14 PM

^^ agreed, it's not a great pro sports town. college sports it's probably the best of any major metro area in the country.

^ it's an SEC city.

yeah atlanta is well known for being a bad sports town.

The "noise" you are hearing is mostly artificial too. They pipe in noise over their speakers, which i think should be illegal in the nfl.

1/13/2013 2:29:45 PM

they're like the opposite of Boston (pro/college)

1/13/2013 2:30:27 PM

an SEC city without an SEC team.

1/13/2013 2:31:26 PM

EPIC FAIL

1/13/2013 2:31:29 PM

looked like they got that off, oh well, idiots

1/13/2013 2:31:39 PM

game over

1/13/2013 2:31:49 PM

well you cant have a worse half than that. what a punctuation. At the very least they should have 9 points right now off three field goal drives. This sucks

1/13/2013 2:32:01 PM

Rose Bowl flashbacks for Russelll

1/13/2013 2:32:22 PM

oh Lord, now we're starting with the "they play fake noise" lies.

oh, and go falcons, bitches.

I get that Seattle's offense is going to struggle, especially in the first half, since the crowd today is actually pretty loud

but defense isn't supposed to be affected by playing on the road, defense travels...Falcons are just outplaying them on both sides of the ball

1/13/2013 2:34:02 PM

Except for that sack, which was really just Sweezy getting burned at the snap, Wilson has been playing pretty well. Play calling and a super shitty defense put Seattle in the 20 point hole.

1/13/2013 2:34:41 PM

Don't be so hard on the fans. It's not their fault fault that everything in downtown is inaccessible and they can't get to the stadium in time.

1/13/2013 2:34:50 PM

Anyone think Atlanta can beat San Francisco. Gotta salvage this.

1/13/2013 2:38:46 PM

well wilson got the snap off there so that's 7 points the seahawks should have

1/13/2013 2:39:32 PM

there were at least 2 places for Wilson to dump it off there, dumb play

1/13/2013 2:50:38 PM

i had to hedge my props. I did like seattle today, but i dont like to be too greedy. Their kicker and best defender being injured worried me.

1/13/2013 2:51:02 PM

russell has all day in the pocket. im surprised atlanta isnt coming with more blitzes and pressure.

1/13/2013 2:52:08 PM

not my fault fox didnt have the game clock right

1/13/2013 2:52:27 PM

First half they were trying to run it with Lynch too much and suffered for it.

The broadcast referee said that even if the Hawks got it off in time, their players were not set so they would've drawn a flag and 10 second run off

1/13/2013 2:54:06 PM

i disagree that they were running it too much.

They had three sustained drives into Falcons territory.

They had a fumble, bad playcalling by not running with Lynch or RW on 3rd and 4th, and clock mismanagement / blown pass protection.

Team could easily have had 9 -17 points at half and be in good shape right now.

Now they need both units to play almost flawless to have a chance. It's going to be tough.

1/13/2013 3:00:20 PM

Have the falcons even punted today?

1/13/2013 3:06:53 PM

Seattle's much vaunted defense has been getting embarrassed in the playoffs this year.

1/13/2013 3:07:05 PM

to be fair they are without their best player today, but yeah their defense was legit as hell all season and didn't play well in the playoffs.

But shit look at denver. their offense and defense were top notch all season and they couldnt win despite 2 special teams TD's at home. Now that was a chokejob of the century.

[Edited on January 13, 2013 at 3:09 PM. Reason : a]

1/13/2013 3:08:35 PM

Why not get another play off to save time? It's not like you're down 3 scores with the 4th quarter about to start

1/13/2013 3:16:26 PM

Basically need a turnover and a stop. Can't have another 7 minute atlanta drive

1/13/2013 3:17:27 PM

is Doeren already recruiting Jay Small for the 2016 class?

1/13/2013 3:19:16 PM

Thank God the punt pass and kick kids are there today.

1/13/2013 3:19:19 PM

This shoulda been the offense all game.

1/13/2013 3:22:41 PM

^^haha, also, thank God for the Fox announcers stating the obvious about what Seahawks need to do.

[Edited on January 13, 2013 at 3:23 PM. Reason : ...]

1/13/2013 3:22:57 PM

That one punt pass and kick kid in the Packers jersey was not impressed.

1/13/2013 3:24:15 PM

Those six points they left on the field sure would come in handy right now

1/13/2013 3:24:46 PM

Basically need a turnover and a stop. Can't have another 7 minute atlanta drive




ALright

1/13/2013 3:30:25 PM

Back in it if we can score here

OH THEY BACK
